LibriVox recording of Lady Jane Grey and Her Times by Ida Ashworth Taylor.
Read in English by Beth Thomas; Lynne T; Ciufi Galeazzi; Shana Cohen; deongines; Michael Fassio
Lady Jane Grey was an English noblewoman, great-granddaughter of Henry VII. As her cousin, Edward VI, lay on his death-bed, he nominated her as his successor to the English crown ahead of his half-sisters Mary and Elizabeth. Jane's reign lasted a mere nine days, before she was convicted of treason and imprisoned in the Tower of London. Often considered one of the most romantic characters of royal history, Taylor gives us a full biography of the Nine Day Queen. - Summary by Lynne Thompson
